SCINE - Core
============

Introduction
------------

Core provides the functionality necessary to couple the individual SCINE
modules together. It is vital for the correct functioning of all SCINE
modules, but it does not directly provide any functionality for end users.
Therefore, only developers of SCINE need to directly interact with Core.

License and Copyright Information
---------------------------------

For license and copyright information, see the file ``LICENSE.txt`` in this
directory.

Installation and Usage
----------------------

As a user of one of the SCINE modules (such as Sparrow), you do not need
to set up Core yourself. Instead, this is done as part of the installation
process of the respective SCINE module. Therefore, the following instructions
are only necessary for developers of SCINE, or those implementing the
interfaces defined here.

Dependencies
............

Required software, minimum required versions in brackets, for this SCINE project are:
- A C++ compiler supporting the C++17 standard
- CMake (3.9)
- Boost (1.65.0)

Installation
............

In order to compile this as a SCINE developer, execute the following
commands::

git submodule init
git submodule update
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../inst ..
make -j 4
make CoreDocumentation
make test
make install

Usage
.....

The main usage guidelines can be found in the part of the developers documentation
that is shared across all projects associated with SCINE.
